"We aim to offer our listeners both the superficial adrenalin rush of furiously heavy metal and the deeper, more sustained pleasure that comes via repeated listens.

The name Brotthogg is derived from an old forgotten norwegian word in dialect meaning "The one who has to take care of the job, the unpleasant one"
